I haven't used many base coats this is my second one (hated the first) and I really like it. It seems to make a noticeable difference in how long my nail polish lasts which is a big deal to me...

I don't have so much experience with base coats, but this one is really good. I'm so glad I bought it after reading MUA reviews. Thin texture, dries fast and my nail polishes spread evenly. Great...

On a recent manicure kick (and obsessed with a couple of Chanel polishes that kill me to watch get chippy after a couple of days) I decided to shop around for a good base coat, which I've never...

Dries quick. Provides a good base for nail polish to stick to. Prevents my nails from staining from red/dark polishes.

I love the name haaha. This base coat dries super fast and provides an even surface to paint polish on. I was skeptical about the small brush at first but it glides on precisely and easily.

I use this base all the time, it applies evenly in a nice thin fast drying coat. It leaves a smooth finish when polish is applied over the top and IMO extends the life of my manis, I usually get...

I only use OPI or China Glaze polish with Seche top coat( just for the reference). I ran out of my Creative Stickey and our TS does not carry Creative, so I bought this. It seems to work better...

I don't get my nails professionally done, but I had a gift certificate and so I went. The tech used Essie First Base Basecoat on me much to my surprise. She swore by it and, a week without a chip...

This is great if you use sheers or light colors, but I got horrible staining with darker colors and reds. It is super thin, so if you use two coats the staining is less, but who wants to spend...

I purchased this recently, as my Creative Nail ridge filler was just not cutting it. I have natural nails and I was lucky if I'd make it 24 hours without a chip in my polish. I thought I would...
